I used Wordpress for years. It was such a hassle constantly getting emails about patching. In the end I got fed up and moved to hugo hosted on netlify. Fantastic. Zero maintenance.
I was also impressed by Netlify. I tried multiple other solutions to host my website but Netlify was my favorite at the end. Easy to setup, free and fast. I configured my account, access to Github, deployment, custom domain and SSL in 5 minutes.
